This worried me. I had nothing except shoes and one pair of padded (yes padded) biking shorts. And they didn't even match each other. I didn't even have the ever important shirt with three secret stash pockets on the lower back. What was I to do?!
Matt came to the rescue. Before I knew it, there was a package on my doorstep. Inside was a helmet, shorts, shirts, glasses, gloves and other essentials. I must admit I was a bit nervous putting on the red shorts with the matching top (seen in picture). After coming downstairs, Garth asked if I was going out like that. So as timid as I still am with the biking community, I changed into a more subtle black short. Since many of the items he sent have a red/black theme, I guess when it is my time to purchase a bike, I will be looking for those colors.
I must give a shout out to my wonderful neighbors, Brian and Suzi, who have let me borrow their daughters bike (thanks Whitney too!) until I can afford my own.
So cool or not...I went out like this today. And I had a great ride!

way cool jersey! sweet bike too - looks like something a bike messenger in DC would ride. You're just missing a water bottle! Suzi and I are in PA putting some miles on the rail trail that runs up and down the valley. I am considering our vacation to be my training camp and I'll be doing 70 miles every day...well, at least that is the plan. Great to see you out on the bike!
Totally cute and cool!
I think you look awesome!! I wish I could pull that off! :)
